3 Pumpkin Recipes we can't get enough of

It’s a beautiful Sunday morning, the air has turned crisp and the leaves are changing, there’s something magical about welcoming the first day of fall. It’s a season of warmth, comfort, and indulgence, with flavors that evoke the essence of autumn. We enjoyed a wonderful evening with friends at our local theater last night and with a chill in the air already pulled out cozy sweaters and tall boots! One of the best ways to celebrate this shift is by embracing the season’s signature flavor: pumpkin spice. Whether you’re sipping on a spiced latte or baking a cozy breakfast, pumpkin spice adds that perfect blend of sweet, savory, and aromatic warmth to any dish.

In honor of the first day of fall, we’re excited to share three of our favorite pumpkin spice recipes: fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes perfect for a weekend brunch, gooey Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls that fill your home with irresistible aromas, and a decadent Pumpkin French Toast that turns an everyday favorite into an autumn treat. These dishes are not only delicious but also a great way to bring the flavors of fall into your kitchen. Let's dive into the recipes and savor the beginning of the coziest season of the year!

Pumpkin Pancakes

Our pumpkin pancakes are the perfect way to kick off a crisp fall morning with comforting flavors and a fluffy texture that melts in your mouth. The combination of pumpkin purée and pumpkin spice really enhances the fall flavors, while the addition of sour cream adds a nice tang and makes the pancakes extra tender. Using oat milk keeps them light, and the melted butter ensures a golden, crisp edge. Topping them with maple syrup and roasted, salted pumpkin seeds will add the perfect balance of sweetness and a delightful crunch. This recipe is sure to become a fall breakfast favorite!

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

This Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll combines the comforting flavors of fall with the classic appeal of homemade cinnamon rolls. Made with a mix of all-purpose flour, canned pumpkin, and warm nutmeg, the dough has a soft and tender texture, while the yeast ensures a perfect rise for fluffy rolls. The addition of oat milk and butter provides richness, and the pumpkin gives it a subtle sweetness and seasonal warmth. Lightly brushing the dough with olive oil before rising keeps it from drying out, and once baked, ice these pumpkin cinnamon rolls with a creamy maple cream cheese icing and its the ultimate cozy fall treat!

Pumpkin French Toast

This Pumpkin French Toast recipe transforms a classic breakfast favorite into a rich, seasonal delight. Whisk together eggs, creamy pumpkin purée, heavy cream, and a fragrant blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla to create a flavorful custard base. Thick slices of challah bread soak up the mixture, ensuring each bite is perfectly spiced and soft on the inside. The addition of sugar helps to caramelize the toast as it cooks, giving it a crispy, golden finish. A sprinkle of sea salt adds the perfect balance to the sweetness, making this French toast a cozy autumn treat!
